EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from a 19th century edition of "The Song of Hiawatha" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, illustrated by Felix O. C. Darley, transports us to the enchanting world of Native American folklore. The print showcases the iconic figures of Hiawatha and Minnehaha in all their glory. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness Hiawatha, a skilled hunter and revered figure among his people, standing tall with his bow drawn back. His focused gaze reveals his determination as he prepares to release an arrow into the wilderness. By his side stands Minnehaha, a graceful woman whose presence exudes strength and beauty. Surrounded by nature's splendor and set against the backdrop of an idyllic forest clearing, this illustration captures the essence of America's indigenous culture during the 19th century. The teepee in the background serves as a reminder of their traditional way of life. Longfellow's poetic masterpiece comes alive through Darley's intricate engravings that beautifully complement each verse. This particular print evokes a sense of reverence for both nature and Native American heritage. As we admire this artwork from The Granger Collection in New York, we are transported to another time - one where archers like Hiawatha roamed freely across vast landscapes while women like Minnehaha stood proudly beside them. It is a testament to our rich history and reminds us to cherish these stories that have shaped our nation's identity.
